India trip: Nawaz was treated ‘like a junior’, says Imran Khan

PTI leader also criticises lack of discussion over Kashmir issue.

ISLAMABAD:

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf chairman Imran Khan made disparaging remarks about Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s recent visit to India, saying he was dealt with ‘like a junior’ by his Indian counterpart, new prime minister Narendra Modi.

Speaking with the media outside Parliament House on Monday, the PTI chief said the PM failed to represent the country effectively and characterised the trip as “junior meets with a senior”.

The PTI leader also criticised the lack of discussion over the Kashmir issue. “This shows that the prime minister is not as concerned about the Kashmir issue and is more interested in business matters,” he said.
